A man shot in the Grand Crossing neighborhood after an argument in a bar was one of two people hurt in South Side shootings overnight.

About 11:05 p.m. Tuesday, a 32-year-old man became involved in an argument with someone else inside a bar or tavern in the 900 block of East 79th Street, Police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro said.

A male suspect pulled a gun and shot the 32-year-old in the hip, Alfaro said. The injured man was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was listed in serious condition.

In a later shooting, a 20-year-old man was shot in the 100 block of West Garfield Boulevard about 3:25 a.m. The man was standing in a praking lot when two people stepped out a dark-colored sedan and one of them started shooting, Police News Affairs Officer Janel Sedevic said.

The man suffered a through-and-through wound to the arm and was listed in good condition at Provident Hospital.
